SmartBuff

SmartBuff is a buff addon, to cast buffs ease and quickly. All classes are supported. Bind a key, scrollwheel or use the action button and it checks if you, a party/raid member, also hunter and warlock pets, needs your buff and cast it. Use the options menu to configure it you like, as example: buffs, raid subgroups, pets, etc.
Run the mod when ever you wish, if nothing is buffed, there is no penalty or cool down.

- FAQ -
Q1: How can I cast group/class buffs, instead of single buffs?
A1: Select both checkboxes, assign the classes, use following options the play around "Grp buff check", "Grp range check" and "group size"/"class size" slider
Example, if you set the group/class slider to 3 it will only buff the greater buff if 3 or more units not have it.

Q2: How can I move the frames and buttons?
A2: Use Shift-Left click and drag them arround

Q3: How can I assign a trigger key for buffs?
A3: Use the Blizzard interface -> keyboard layout to define the trigger key for SmartBuff. Open and close the SmartBuff options frame and it will remap this key to the new SecureActionButton

Q4: How can I assign a key for debuffing?
A4: During the new Blizzard secure UI is this not longer possible!

Q5: How can I disable the scrollwheel buffing?
A5: Disable the "Buff on scroll" in the SmartBuff options frame, close it and rebind scrollwheel to whatever you want

Q6: How can I cast buffs in combat?
A6: If you want to cast a spell in combat, the you have to check also the "in combat" option in the main options frame (on the right of "Buff on scroll").
Be carfully with this option. In combat is no logic allowed, so SB sets your first "combat"-buff on your key before combat, but in combat it can't do any actions to prevent to cast during the restrictions. It only can show you when do you need a buff, but any time you hit the key in combat it buffs.
Thats also the reason why the "in combat" is per default "off".

Q7: SmartDebuff casts the wrong debuff on a player, is this a bug?
Please watch carfully in which color the debuff button is highlighted, this is very important! You have to click the button with the correct mouse click
Highlighted BLUE = LEFT click
Highlighted RED = RIGHT click
Highlighted GREEN = MIDDLE click

Q8: It does not buff anything, whats wrong?
A8: Please make sure you have selected any buff and the right classes. If you are in resting mode (Cities) SmartBuff is per default in "sleep mode" and does not cast spells, select the option "Buff in cities" to cast buffs in resting mode also.

Q9: Can I use SmartBuff in a macro?
A9: Yes, since the last blizzard added a /click command, use following command:
/click SmartBuff_KeyButton

I'm honestly surprised that this hasn't been addressed yet, but I guess it always has to start somewhere =P

I love the addon- it works wonders for me for BS. But, as a Fury warrior, it gets really really old missing Rampage every once in a while. Is there any way to add to/configure your addon to flash/chime/anything noticable when Rampage has say, 5-10 seconds left on it??

As a Hunter, I use different Aspects for different sets. The problem is, SB does not tell me I need Aspect A when Aspect B is running. Also, if I hit the "smart button", it will not give me Aspect A if Aspect B is running, even if it is what I selected for that set.

Is there a way around this? I'd like it to be like when I play my Paladin, and if I have Blessing of Wisdom selected for myself for a set, if I have Blessing of Protection on, it will let me know, and I can "overwrite" it.

Another small issue, for some reason on my horde character I am getting a small buff box in the dead center of my screen. The buff is usually the last buff added to me.
I checked by buff bars and I have plenty of room there so its not "overflowing"
Suggestions ?

Would be great if the charge/timer settings could be adjusted per config. For example, with the changes to Water Shield, I'll use that in a prty/raid and won't want to recast that until it's out of charges or the timer runs up, but I might have another shield configured for solo/BG's that I would want to be refreshed before the timer or charges ran out.

Originally posted by Aeldra Well, SB buffs the player in any case if a spell is selected to buff.
As example you are in grp 2 and have to buff 4 & 5, SB checks groups 1-8, so it will buff you first, because the player is the first traget in the buff sequence.
Maybe I should add a new checkbox to buff only the selected grps.

Isn't the box to buff player first kinda what you are describing ?
I always assumed if that was not checked it would go directly to the groups designated.

Originally posted by Rilynn When buffing specific groups the mod will always buff me first then the groups.
The option is NOT checked to buff player first.

running latest version also

suggestions ?

Update, during last nights raid the group buffs worked fine for about 1-2 hours then it was back to prayer of fort for me first before my selected groups were done.
Also in AB today I had no groups selected for buffs and used the scroll wheel for Inner Fire, I received prayer of fort instead. My buff player option is not checked.

Timer is constantly off on paladin blessings. I can have no buffs, have SB cycle through say blessing of might and then well before it fades it will just say I need it again, i've seen it do this at 9min, 7min, anything basically. Stock install of 2.2a on a fresh install and I see this random problem with all blessings on myself.
